Sustainable Exhibition Stands

What makes an exhibition stand sustainable? We use the Prestige Events System to create exhibiting campaigns for you, that are as sustainable as possible, and which will enhance your environmental reputation.

Modular Exhibition Stands

Our exhibition stand system - the Prestige Events System - is the only genuinely modular solution capable of forming professional, custom-designed exhibits, that are reconfigurable and reusable in different stand space.

Reusable Exhibition Stands

You can avoid the shocking waste of 'old-fashioned' exhibition stands, where you re-invent the wheel every time you exhibit, by creating your exhibition stands in the Prestige Events System. These stands can be reconfigured and reused in different stand space, at future shows, saving you money while enhancing your environmental reputation.

Self-build Exhibition Stands

Our Prestige exhibition stands have so many great self-build characteristics, it's hard knowing where to start! But let's give it a go: our stands are lightweight to transport, yet strong and stable when built. They are built without tools and are therefore extremely safe to build. Plus they are superbly engineered and carefully designed to be as intuitive to build as is possible.

Portable Exhibition Stands

So many of our competitors' exhibition solutions are difficult to transport and store. Even larger stands created in the Prestige Events System can typically be transported in an estate car or small van. This feeds into and reinforces the ease-of-use and sustainability benefits our exhibition stands.

What are your options when exhibiting..?

It’s easy to be confused by the terminology used in the exhibition industry. It is often confusing, sometimes deliberately so! Here is an honest description of the various solutions you will encounter when investigating an exhibition stand solution.

Custom-built stands

These are traditionally built exhibition stands manufactured from timber products, steel and acrylic. They are typically glued and screwed together on site. With a good budget and in the hands of a good designer, they offer maximum originality. However, they are shockingly wasteful and environmentally damaging. And they’re almost impossible to reconfigure and reuse in different stand space at future shows.

Modular display stands

Unfortunately, when searching for an exhibition stand solution, you will meet suppliers who misrepresent their solutions. No term is more often misrepresented than the term ‘modular’. Nearly all of the modular exhibiting solutions offered are in-fact, display stands, not exhibition stands. These display stands are fine for small, two-dimensional graphic displays, but are not capable of forming complex, professional-looking, bespoke exhibition stands. Don’t invest in a display, when you really need an exhibition stand.

Popup display stands

We all grew up marketing the humble, yet effective popup exhibition stand! These are the simple curved graphic displays you see at shows and in retail situations. They are great for ‘starter-exhibiting’ or as portable displays… but they are not exhibition stands.

What are Custom-Modular exhibition stands..?

Custom-modular exhibition stand systems are as rare as hens teeth!

These are essentially exhibition stand solutions that are bespoke to the client’s design requirements (hence we call them ‘custom-designed) but which offer all the benefits of modularity, scalability and reusability.

So they are beautifully engineered exhibition systems, that provide a lovely custom-designed look and feel, but which ‘under-the-bonnet’ are modular, scalable and reusable.

Thus combining the benefits of ‘modular’ and ‘custom’ – hence the term ‘custom-modular’ exhibition stands.

Our Prestige Events System is the worlds leading custom-modular exhibiting solution.

Invented by our Swiss colleague and friend, inventor Peter Petersen in the late 1970s, Prestige has a long and distinguished design pedigree.

Since 2003 Quadrant2Design have been a big part of the Prestige story, and we are now the exclusive supplier of this amazing solution.

Since 2003 we have further developed our exhibition stands, emphasising the beautiful look and feel of panoramic graphic display, with integrated product showcasing and digital flat-screen presentations.

Your Prestige stands will give you that classy custom-built look while increasing your return-on-investment through its modular, scalable and reusable characteristics.
